The devilish warship turned into a caterpillar made of a series of giant fireballs. It twisted violently and smashed down from the sky!
The intense airwaves raised by the explosion enshrouded the debris within a thousand square meters in smoke. Flames and dust were flying everywhere. Broken bodies and broken stones were splashing everywhere. It was a scene of doomsday!
Jin Xinyue was blown away almost eighty meters by the airwaves. Her face as pale as paper, she stared at the debris of the warship in bewilderment.
To this moment, she still found it hard to believe her eyes!
A devilish warship that was designed to suppress targets on the ground had been shot down by a certain unparalleled weapon?
The weapon had pierced through the shield of the devilish warship directly, and the source of the attack was unleashing demonic energy that felt like a torrential flood.
She had only sensed demonic energy of the same level from her father, Jin Tuyi, the commander-in-chief of the Coalition Army of Demons, before!
What — what level is this expert at exactly?
Jin Xinyue's nostrils, ears, and eyes were bleeding at the same time. Her internal organs seemed to have been stomped on by iron hooves. She felt that her throat was sweet, but she did not dare to cough, fearing that she would cough out her broken internal organs if she did.
Behind her, a search team of the Coalition Army of Demons was dumbfounded by the blast, too. Everybody's brain was beating inside their skull at a high speed, and they were unable to react for a long time.
They stared at the traces of burning in the sky in bewilderment, as if they were hallucinating. Everybody was shaking uncontrollably.
Very soon, a black shadow vaguely popped up in the smoke.
It was like the king of devils that had crawled out of the deepest level of hell. Black demonic energy was dancing around him, and he was tearing the air apart in hissing noises.
BOOM!
Behind the 'Tartarean Demon Lord', the debris of the devilish warship burst out another earthshaking explosion. For a moment, the earth was shaking, and airwaves were surging out. Purple fire soared to the sky and burned half of the dome!
All the demons crouched. They held their heads tightly in case they were blown away by the blast.
They knew very well how dreadful the airwaves, acid, venomous fog, and blasts that splashed out after the explosion of a devilish warship were!
If they were hit by the acid mist stored in the warship, they might be melted in an instant!
"Go!"
The thunderous voice seemed to explode from the depths of Jin Xinyue's brain. Then, she sensed dozens of extremely sharp demonic auras rushing into the major acupoints all over her body.
Under the stimulation of the demonic aura, his originally exhausted body actually produced a brand-new force, and he was involuntarily dragged over.
Jin Xinyue was pleasantly surprised. They almost cheered.
It was that old monster!
No wonder he could release such a powerful demonic aura!
However, Li Yao could not be bothered with the fluctuations in Jin Xinyue's heart. He opened up his hand and sucked her over. Then, his wings turned into battle blades, and the myriad of black feathers swept out fiercely, forming layers of arc-shaped air currents behind him. It was as if a tsunami had erupted, sweeping through the area with a radius of several hundred meters, sending several tens of shrimp soldiers and crab generals flying.
Whoosh!
Li Yao lifted Jin Xinyue and enshrouded her spiritual waves with his demonic aura, lowering the intensity of the demonic aura. Entering the stealth mode, he rushed among the broken walls without making a sound!
The thunderous strike intimidated the Feather Clan and the devilish warships that were chasing after him.
For a moment, they did not know what was going on in the depths of the city. Why had such a cluster of intense demonic aura burst out and attacked them?
The encirclement became more prudent, but the defense at the periphery was even more rigorous. All the troops had finished their rest and were dispersed to the defense area more than ten kilometers deep. The surface of the ocean seemed to be boiling. Countless enormous deep-sea demon beasts were waking up from the bottom of the ocean!
Li Yao secretly cursed and took Jin Xinyue with him. They rushed to the entrance of the first tunnel that he had excavated in advance.
However, at the entrance of the tunnel, a battle squad of the coalition army of demons was entrenched.
It appeared that they were establishing a defense line on the spot, preparing to block the area where Li Yao and Jin Xinyue appeared.
Having no time to choose the second entrance of the tunnel, Li Yao roared. Seven dragon-like arms enshrouded in living cells appeared on his back. Together with the sixteen Triple-headed Six-barreled Vulcan Machine Cannons, a destructive storm was blown out. Together with the suppression of the Cell Obliteration Cannon, the entire squad was obliterated in three seconds!
Jin Xinyue was so shocked that her heart was pounding. After only a few months, the old monster's capability had reached a higher level. Also … what kind of magical equipment was he wearing exactly? Why was it so terrifying?
The old monster was truly immeasurable!
"As of now, 22% of the spiritual energy inside my body has been consumed. Around 730 billion cells have been obliterated. 26% of the ammunition has been consumed. The fuel of the Crystal Suit has been reduced by 11%. The hardness has dropped by 7%!
"According to the comprehensive evaluation, the overall combat ability has dropped by 11%. The duration of the battle in the current state is 1 hour, 43 minutes, and 44 seconds. If we switch to the high-intensity combat mode, we can only persist for 58 minutes. Should we be surrounded and bombarded by more than three devilish warships or demon kings riding powerful biochemical beasts, our consumption will be even higher!
"There are at least nine devilish warships in our sight. In a siege of such a level, there must be middle-level and high-level demon kings. Chances are that there are more than one!
"As the overall combat ability declines, the longer we delay, the worse the situation will be. If we break out of the siege right now, we must ensure that Jin Xinyue is still alive. The odds of success are no higher than 5%!"
Li Yao analyzed the combat ability of the enemy calmly and monitored the situation on the ocean with Neltharion. After a breath, he picked up Jin Xinyue and crawled into the tunnel without any hesitation.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
After every hundred meters forward, he would detonate a crystal bomb behind him and completely blow up the tunnel.
The trick was only temporary.
There were many experts in the Coalition Army of Demons who were best at drilling and digging underground. Before long, they would discover and invade the secret tunnel.
Jin Xinyue knew that it was not the time to talk, too, because of the urgency of the situation. She followed Li Yao obediently without saying anything. The two of them ran at full speed like two bolts of lightning and reached the end of the secret tunnel in the blink of an eye.
This place was very close to the ocean. The air was humid, and the smell of the ocean wind was vaguely spreading out.
Ahead of them was the teleportation array through which Li Yao snuck into Void Turmoil City.
Li Yao made a gesture and activated the teleportation array. But instead of standing on it with Jin Xinyue, he simply put a piece of weird-looking magical equipment that looked like a fish full of holes into it.
"Shua!"
The magical equipment vanished and reappeared in the deep-sea coral one kilometer away.
Under the control of Li Yao's telepathic thoughts, the magical equipment sent out the waves of the shoal of Axe Fish that Li Yao had recorded in the beginning while it dashed into the deep sea.
"Let's go!"
Li Yao led Jin Xinyue back and arrived at another inconspicuous teleportation array after many zigzags.
He set up time bombs around the teleportation array and set them to be detonated five seconds later. Then, he and Jin Xinyue stood on it.
"Shua!"
The two of them vanished at the same time and reappeared in the darkness.
The teleportation array that they had entered was immediately detonated.
It was not until this moment that Li Yao finally took a breath in relief.
They were safe for now.
Jin Xinyue, on the other hand, was hesitating in the darkness, full of questions.
"You've caused too much trouble."
Li Yao explained, "The Coalition Army of Demons has set up a dragnet around Void Turmoil City. If they hadn't been alarmed, we might've had a chance to escape. But right now, they have raised their wariness to the maximum. The ocean is full of sharp-eyed members of the Sea Clan. There is no way that we can escape from the bottom of the ocean, at least not in the next two days.
"Therefore, I released a piece of special magical equipment that will swim in the deep sea on its own and release exactly the same waves that I did when I snuck in.
"If the members of the Sea Clan are smart enough, they will certainly notice that the waves that seem to belong to the shoal of Axe Fish are too rigid and straight to the west. They will mistake the waves for us.
"Then, the Coalition Army of Demons will think that we have escaped from the bottom of the ocean and will focus all their attention on the ocean.
"Before they catch up with the magical equipment, we will have earned a few hours of time."
Jin Xinyue was dazed. She couldn't help but ask, "What is this place?"
Li Yao took out an illumination chip from his pocket and pressed it softly. Gentle blue light emanated from the chip and illuminated the surroundings.
They were in a secret chamber no more than five meters in length and width. It was empty except for more than ten one-way teleportation arrays carved on the walls.
Other than the teleportation array through which they entered, the other teleportation arrays could only be used to leave the place but not to teleport in from the other side.
"This is the Fire Ant's underground teleportation house. The teleportation arrays lead to the 'safe houses' in every part of Void Turmoil City. But I estimate that most of the 'safe houses' have been razed to the ground, haven't they?"
Li Yao said with a bitter smile. The active cells on the surface of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit were all in the hibernation state. The Crystal Suit was retracted into the Cosmos Ring, revealing an angry face.
"Have you really reached out to the Fire Ant?"
Jin Xinyue was both surprised and delighted. She flattered him habitually. "Master, you are truly an unparalleled expert."
"There's no need to flatter me just yet."
Li Yao said coldly, "What is going on exactly? Why did you trigger such intense spiritual waves in front of so many people and expose the secret of your transformation into a 'Cultivator'?"
Jin Xinyue's pretty face was wrinkled like the skin of a tangerine. She replied, somewhat amused, "I was forced to do it. Speaking of which, I was truly unlucky."
After hearing her explanation, Li Yao's face turned weird, too.
As it turned out, after Li Yao snuck into the Skeleton Island a few months ago, and especially after he joined the Blade of Chaos, Yuchi Ba, the master of the Skeleton Island, did fulfill his promise and sent Jin Xinyue and the families of the other gladiators to the businesses and clubs that belonged to the Blade of Chaos in Void Turmoil City for some relatively leisurely jobs.
Jin Xinyue, on the other hand, was a person who liked nothing more than to watch the world burn. She was not willing to be idle at all. Also, she wanted to help Li Yao gather more intelligence. Therefore, she could not help but resort to certain methods in such a messy place.
